some people having dead phone for using PHOENIX And that happens because the ADL server checks the CRC after the firmware upgrade, which won't match because you cooked your firmware files and will cause the boot-loader not to change back to normal operating mode. So DO NOT USE PHOENIX when upgrading CORE, ROFS2, ROFS3 cooked files, use JAF only...

If JAF doesn't find the RM-={BANNED}, just add the following two lines to the end of the file jaf_nok4models.ini (normally found in C:\Program Files\ODEON\JAF\):

Note RM-??? will be your country or region type

11. left click "OK"
12. your FIRMWARE FILES ARE SETUP AND LOADED READY FOR FLASHING BY JAF
13. Turn Off Your Phone connect it to your pc.
14. in the "Operations Box", left click on "FLASH"
[Then Click YES when a dialog appears like on the picture below]

15. then Jaf will ask for turn on your phone click turn on [Now Just press the Power Button on your phone a little (just for about 1 second)]
15. Wait for JAF to start flashing
16. after flash complete your phone will auto start

NOTE: all old BB5 (uni-core processor) phones can be flashed in Dead USB mode, but only those new BB5 (multi-core processor) phones can be flashed in Dead USB mode which have their boot loader intact.
in many cases of new BB5 dead phones, the boot loader also gets corrupted.

Supported Nokia phones until now:

it is recommended to download your required firmware by NAVIFIRM tool, it downloads from directly NOKIA servers, so you get a guaranteed good firmware

NOTE:: the firmware downloaded with above tool will be in the form of a folder with few files in it, put that folder at C:\Program Files\Nokia\Phoenix\Products\ if any of these folders do not exist, make them.

just run the JAF through the PKEY emulator

NOTE:: it is recommended that the phone be in normal mode (with SIM inserted)

Notes
This method will erase user data
Check if battery is charged
You must flash the same version or newer version software on phone. If You don't know which software version does the mobile phone has, flash the newest available software on phone.

extract that zip archive from above file,you will get J.a.f setup file and a virtual pkey.
install j.a.f

warning: many antivirus softwares will show some j.a.f components as virus But just ignore it.

note: windows 7 and vista users must run pkey as administrator and set compatibility as windows xp

Obtaining Firmware(software):

open navifirm and select target as ‘product external’.
it will display the list of Nokia handsets and their RM version.
click on your handset name with correct Rm version.

note: you can check rm version by dialling *#0000#

next another list will display in release column, select your firmware version.

CAUTION!: download correct firmware version, or even higher version but not lower versions, because by downgrading or flashing with lower versions may cause you phone to dead, but you can revive dead phone too via jaf
next comes variant, you can download and flash with any variants of software that doesn’t matter, but if you want exact variant, than open your phone’s back cover, remove battery under that you will find code like this 0559107(phone specific).
next firmware contents will be displayed download only these files.
.mcu
.cnt or .image
.ppm

.mcu this is the largest one among firmware files,it contains all program data of firmware,some versions of j.a.f wont detect .mcu then just rename it to .c0r (c zero r).
.image all gallery elements such as tones,wallpapers,default games,apps are included in this file.
.ppm this is the most important one,it contains all tones such as keypad tone,recording beep,menu icons etc.we can change every element of this file,firmware modification is possible.

Preparation:

“flashing is the process of upgrading, downgrading* and reinstalling phones firmware or software”

open pkey, then run J.a.f, keep pkey opened don’t close it just minimize it.
go to bb5 column.
check the following there.
a)manual flash
b)Factory set
c)normal mode
4)then click on mcu,browse to folder where you downloaded mcu and select it (if jaf wont detects mcu file then rename it to .c0r then re try).
5)like that select ppm ant .cnt or .image files.
6)connect your phone with the help of usb data cable,in PC suite mode.
7)before flashing make sure your phone battery has enough charge,i recommend connecting to charger while flashing.

note: make sure you have closed all softwares related to Nokia like PC suite,phoenix etc exit PC suite from system tray also.
